Modern and Contemporary Art in Wroclaw, Poland, Wroclaw, Poland

I spent quite a bit of my time in Wroclaw wandering around galleries and museums. There’s a lot to see and experience.

This guide is a selection of the leading art institutions featuring modern and contemporary art in Wroclaw, Poland.

I loved visiting museums in Wroclaw and could really appreciate the high qaulity curation and the great use of the space in all of them.

The permanent collection features Polish art from the 20th and 21st centuries and the exhibition is organised by themes, such as Polish art in the 80s, women artists, pop art influences in Poland and many others.

Located in one of Wroclaw’s famous architectural landmarks, the Four Domes Pavilion, the museum makes wonderufl use of natural light.

There are texts in English and Polish in each room that are very helpful. There are also texts on their website.

It’s a good idea to combine your visit with other attractions in the area: The Centennial Hall, Wroclaw’s Japanese Garden and the Multimedia Fountain.

Housed in an interesting round shaped building that used to be a shelter, it’s well worth taking a short trip outside the city centre to visit this museum.

The impressive museum building is a former mediaeval church. It features both modern architecture and design (check their site for temporary exhibitions) and ancient architecture and crafts, as part of the permanent collection. ......
